About
A recessive gene founded by Jaroslav Gilar in the Czech Republic that lacks melanin but does produce the enzyme Tyrosinase, which starts the conversion of amino acid into melanin. [1]
Issues
Photophobia
While the word photophobia literally translates to a "fear of light”. Its not actually that you are scared of light, but instead, are incredibly sensitive to it. Animals with albinism experience photophobia due to the lack of pigment in the iris, which does not allow the eyes to filter out light.
